Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Friday. Munaf Manji and Dave Essler close out the month of July with a full Cash That Ticket breakdown of Friday's Major League Baseball card, delivered on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed, opening with an honest look at a rough month before diving into a slate loaded with division and wild card stakes. They start with Paul Skenes and the Pittsburgh Pirates visiting Hunter Greene and the Cincinnati Reds, leaning toward Pittsburgh's deeper bullpen in the first five innings, then turn to Andrew Painter and the Philadelphia Phillies against the Baltimore Orioles, where Painter's rough return from injury has both hosts circling the Orioles team total. Janson Junk and the Miami Marlins head to Citi Field to face a declining Freddy Peralta and the New York Mets, with both hosts leaning Miami in the first five innings as Peralta's trade rumors swirl. Foster Griffin gets the ball for Washington on the road against Bryce Elder and the Atlanta Braves, and the guys like Griffin's strong history against Atlanta even while admitting they do not trust the Nationals bullpen for a full nine. Nathan Eovaldi and the Texas Rangers visit a red hot Hunter Brown and the Houston Astros, a spot where Munaf backs the home favorite while Dave eyes value on the total given Houston's recent form. The night's headline game sends Ranger Suarez and the Boston Red Sox into Dodger Stadium against Eduardo Henrique and the Los Angeles Dodgers, with Shohei Ohtani back in the lineup and both hosts circling the Dodgers team total given the lineup's depth. Dave runs through a string of quicker takes covering the Milwaukee Brewers against the Los Angeles Angels, the Colorado Rockies against the Kansas City Royals, the Cleveland Guardians against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Seattle Mariners against the Minnesota Twins, the Chicago White Sox against the Tampa Bay Rays, and the San Francisco Giants against the San Diego Padres, before the show pivots entirely into football. The back half of the episode breaks down the Denver Broncos' win total heading into a new season under Sean Payton and quarterback Bo Nix, covering a brutal opening schedule, an improved receiving corps after adding Jaylen Waddle alongside Evan Engram, and a defense led by Patrick Surtain that should again rank among the league's best, with both hosts leaning toward the over while flagging real questions about an unproven backfield. They close the football segment with a season long passing yards prop on Bo Nix before locking in their best bets of the show.

Best bets on this episode include a run line play on the Athletics against the Detroit Tigers built around heavy reverse line movement, and a moneyline lean on the Houston Astros over the Rangers, as the guys wrap up July, take stock of a disappointing Tigers season derailed by injuries, and look ahead to a Monday show previewing the Houston Texans win total for the coming NFL season, closing out another detailed, deadline aware breakdown of a full slate of games, injury news, and win total value across baseball and football.

Where will Drake Maye land on this list? How would you feel if Maye is in the top 20? The Broncos have struggled in September. How can they get off to a faster start? If Davis Webb has the offense clicking early, and the defense can take the ball away, what can this start look like for Denver? We check our X to close out the hour!

In the final hour of Dover and Cecil, Josh has some “would you rather” questions for Cecil! Would you rather have a healthy JK for an entire season, or have Evan Engram look like the Joker we were promised? What about the defense, would you rather them top 5 in sacks or interceptions?  With the NFL’s top 100 list still coming out, what will Bo have to do to separate himself from his draft class? Where will Drake Maye land on this list? How would you feel if Maye is in the top 20? The Broncos have struggled in September. How can they get off to a faster start? If Davis Webb has the offense clicking early, and the defense can take the ball away, what can this start look like for Denver? We react to some fresh audio coming out of training camp. What did PS2 have to say after their first day with everyone back.   

In hour 2 of The Drive, Phil and Justin take a deep dive into the Broncos. Will Bo Nix take that "year three leap" like we saw with Josh Allen? Will he be in full command of the offense with a new play caller? Will Nix be more comfortable making adjustments at the line of scrimmage in year three? How can Nix build more chemistry with Evan Engram? Today's "Three Count" features the World Cup viewership in America for the final averaging 66 million people, and if that will lead to an expanded interest in the MLS, former Nugget Ty Lawson getting arrested for shoplifting from a liquor store in Castle Rock, and Victor Wembanyama getting named as the cover athlete for 2k27. Is Wemby already the face of the league at 22? We react to reports that the Nuggets are rebuffing teams calling to acquire Cam Johnson. Are the Nuggets bringing back Johnson, and is this the right decision? What should the Nuggets starting lineup be if they keep Johnson and Peyton Watson? 

In hour 3 of The Drive, Phil and Justin debate if the Broncos' receivers of Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton can be the best wide-receiving duo in the NFL this season. What more do the guys want to see from Waddle and Sutton to be considered in the top tier? How will the addition of speed impact how defenses will defend the Broncos? Is this the best wide receiver duo in Denver since Demarius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders? How long will it take for Bo Nix and Waddle to create the necessary chemistry? What signs should we look for to know Nix and Waddle are comfortable with each other? With the rookies reporting to camp today, we preview the Broncos' rookie class. Who will make the biggest impact in 2026? Could Justin Joly pass Evan Engram for tight end 1? What do the guys need to see from Deion Sanders this season? Will the Buffs have an established identity? How pivotal are the first three games of the season for Colorado? 

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Zach and Phil cross-talking with Dover and Cecil. The guys discuss superhero movies, the Marvel franchise, and Zach's kid winning his little league baseball championship over the weekend. Zach and Phil react to Bo Nix finally coming in on the NFL's top 100 players list, at number 57 as he enters his third season. Where will his draft class counterparts like Caleb Williams, Drake Maye and Jayden Daniels end up on the list, if at all? Should Nix have moved up more than 5 spots since making his debut on the list last offseason? What is the most likely for the Broncos between JK Dobbins going for 1,000 yards, Courtland Sutton going for 1,000 yards, Jaylen Waddle going for 1,000 yards, Nik Bonitto getting 15 sacks and Evan Engram going for 800 yards? We react to Hunter Goodman's three-home run performance from Sunday, as he becomes the first Rockies player to have multiple games with three home runs in a season. 

In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil finish their conversation on Peyton Watson and how concerned they are about the sample size of playing well. We pivot to the Buffs and react to ESPN's FPI analytics predicted winning probability in each of their games this season. With only being favorites in 4 of their games, would a 4-8 season be considered successful? We react to ESPN building the best starting lineup in the NFL with only backup players. Who is the Broncos' best backup player, and could he step in to a starting role? What is the most likely for the Broncos between JK Dobbins going for 1,000 yards, Courtland Sutton going for 1,000 yards, Jaylen Waddle going for 1,000 yards, Nik Bonitto getting 15 sacks, and Evan Engram going for 800 yards? We react to Hunter Goodman's three-home run performance from Sunday, as he becomes the first Rockies player to have multiple games with three home runs in a season. Could he set the NL record for home runs by a catcher? What kind of haul could the Rockies get if they decided to trade Goodman before the trade deadline this year?
